Rose in Meditation chapter13

Finally it is starting to make some sense. I like this! It corresponds with my own ideas.

quote from the e-book:
. To pretend to turn away from the ego-self, while de facto still being at best only the thought of transcendence maintained by this same ego, is to be once again out-witted by the mind. This must be seen. On the other side of the paradox, however, this human self is not to be derisively (hånfullt) regarded as garbage to be thrown out or a sinner to be deprecated(ogillad), as this would still be another subtle form of identification within duality, implied by one’s desire to disassociate from it or repudiate (förkasta) it. This common religious attitude is dangerously misleading.

Personal delusion is better likened to a cancer of a body system, in which the objective is to locate the cause of the disease and remedy it, returning the organism to wholeness and vitality; not to cut out the offending body parts as if excommunicated.

The human being is not the Self, but it is evidently an intended part of its total manifestation. Nonduality in regards to the Self is to incorporate the “self” (purified of the ego that would inhabit it) as a part of the whole picture of reality too, and not something contrary to it. What is required is to allow it to be, truth-fully, as a relative, human self within its own domain—which is within the Self’s larger domain, yet to realize that one is not it.
